Chapter 4

At the Pearl

Will leaned against a bar table sipping his beer as Joseph stood next to him pointing out every female that happened to saunter by them. It was now 9:30pm and the bar was packed. The DJ seemed to be favoring rap and techno remixes so the middle of the room, which was the sunken in dance floor, seemed to bounce in sync with the strobe and stage lights.

"Will check out that one!" Joseph cried loudly in his ear, "now that's an apple I like to take a bite out of!" Will just rolled his eyes, and wondered why everything out of Joseph's mouth was always some form of odd urban slang. Just then a small arm encircled his waist and tickled his stomach. Will attempted to look around him, but the mysterious person ducked out of view, still clutching him closely. By the look on Joseph's face, eye wagging and mouth practically drooling, Will smiled and grabbed the mysterious arm with his hands turning suddenly in her arms capturing her in a tight embrace. With his head at the base of her neck, he buried his face in her hair. Will took a deep breath in, the smell of melon and strawberries filled his nostrils…he froze. Elizabeth wore a lavender/rose scent and always smelled like a bouquet of flowers, never like fruit. In fact, she had once told him that fruit and berry scents were reserved for small children and women who stripped for money. His eyes shot open to reveal a mass of blond hair, and he dropped his embrace so suddenly that the woman slipped and almost spilled to the floor. That is if Joseph wasn't right there to catch her…and practically grope her as he helped her to her feet. Jess straightened out her vivid pink vixen dress, with the neck line that V-ed so low you could see the full curve of her breasts, which most likely would be entirely visible if they were not taped to the fabric. She pulled down lightly on the back of her dress so that her bum wasn't fully visible.

"Will, it's nice to see you too," Jessica winked as she pushed Joseph away and reached for Will's hand.

"Jess, I'm sorry I thought you were someone else." Will replied flatly, as he quickly dodged her move and gently stood so that Joseph was between them.

"Where's Jeremy?" Will asked, scanning the bar.

"He's around," Jessica quipped, "you were amazing on the field today! You are just so talented Will, both on and off the field I'm sure." She once again managed to bypass Joseph and started to rub Will's forearm which was resting on the bar table. The look of sheer joy washed over Joseph's face as he watched the interaction,

"Ya know Jess, I blocked two passes today, and as a defensive linemen I like things rough." Joseph winked at her.

"So you like it rough when it comes to playing with men?" Jess replied with a mocking tone. Joseph looked as if she had run over his dog,

"No I just meant…" Jessica suddenly turned back towards Will so her back was to Joseph.

"So Will, I've been dying to hit the dance floor, care to join me?" Will's eyes were like saucers as they scanned the room and relief washed over him as the perfect decoy came into sight.

"Jess, I'm actually waiting for Liz to show up, but I'm sure Jeremy," Will practically shoved Joseph out the way as he grabbed Jeremy's shirt collar as he walked by, "would love to." Jeremy startled, turned to see Jessica looking rather annoyed and Will smiling while shoving her into his arms.

"Jeremy, Jess would love to dance. She's your girl, so go show her a good time." Will winked as he turned from the two, and headed back to his beer. As Jessica and Jeremy headed stiffly to the dance floor, Joseph seemed to have come out of his catatonic state and looked at Will mouth agape,

"What?" Will replied to his expression.

"That was one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen, practically dying to get into your pants man, and you turn her away! Will where is you dick man?" Will just rolled his eyes and focused on the stairwell entrance.

"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder," Will retorted, as he scanned the room and sipped his beer.

"Well behold me some of that!" Joseph countered as he pointed towards two slender females cresting the stairwell, with their arms entwined with a man covered in facial hair and dread locks.

"How did a guy like that land those two girls?" Joseph uttered. Will eyes quickly fleeted back to the entrance. There walking pass the bar was a tall thin African American women with jet black curly hair, and smoky eyes that could ensnare any fool hearted man. Particularly the fool that currently was fighting them through the mass of men who seemed to have suddenly assembled. On the man's other arm, was another tall slender woman, whose honey brown locks draped her bare shoulders. Will's eyes continued their gaze downward as he followed the slender fit of her blouse around her curves, to her waistline where the slightest bit of flesh peeked through as she moved. Her dark jeans fit her like a glove and made her legs look as if they went on for miles. Her brown eyes to match her hair were scanning the room as she tightened her grip around Jack's arm as he lead them through the swarm.

"Will," Joseph nudged his shoulder, "Will!" Will slightly shook his head as if coming out of a trance and turned to Joseph,

"He's the mascot and he got those two gorgeous girls! Not one, but two! He is a pirate!" Joseph said and laughed, but when he turned to Will he saw him searching the room again with a look of slight concern on his face. Joseph then saw the trio again, this time walking straight towards them, and the stunning brunette was smiling directly at him.

"Will!!" Joseph quietly cried under his breath, "I think she knows me! She's coming this way, help me out here." Will, who had been disregarding Joseph and trying to see where Jack had lead Elizabeth -and was now quite annoyed, turned to see who Joseph was talking about. Joseph was standing a foot directly in front of him, and Elizabeth had broke free of Jack's arm and was winding through the crowd briskly towards them. As she approached the two she opened up her arms, keeping her eyes firmly set on her goal as he smiled back at her. Before she reached Will, Joseph opened up his arms and took her in a large embrace.

"Hello you!" Joseph replied, as he squeezed her. Will looked as if he as going to finish Joseph off right then and there before Elizabeth chuckled, and untwined herself from the confused boy. She quickly wrapped her arms around Will, and captured his lips in an enthusiastic kiss before he took off poor Joseph's head. Joseph quickly realized that this woman did not know him, and in fact had been walking towards Will and not him the entire time. To top things off, Joseph also realized that this was the first girl he had ever seen Will kiss, which meant this must be Elizabeth, which meant he pretty much just hit on the starting quarter back's girlfriend…suddenly he felt like he was going to vomit.

"Where's a hose when you need one," Jack replied with irritation as he set the pitcher of beer down on the table. Joseph quickly turned to see the mascot standing next to him, with the other runway model still attached to his arm with a wide smile as she laughed at his comment and started filling the empty glasses. Will leisurely ended his kiss with Elizabeth,

"What took you so long?" He whispered as he nuzzled into her neck with another embrace, reveling the in the feel of her silk top and apparent lack of undergarments as he ran his hands up and down her back. Elizabeth flashed a seductive smile as she turned in his embrace to face Anna and Jack.

"We would have been here an hour ago if Jack could have kept his hands of Anna for a minute." Will let up on his embrace, keeping an arm securely around Elizabeth's waist, rubbing his thumb on the smooth skin of her hip that peeked out below the trim of her blouse while picking up his beer with the other.

"William, I don't know what to say. When the time is right they beg you for more, yet at all other times you are nothing more than a nuisance." Jack added to Elizabeth's comment. Will smiled and raised his glass to that,

"They only keep us around for one thing mate," Will jabbed, as his toasted his mug with Jack's.

"The one thing they can't buy in the store mate." Jack somberly replied, while taking a sip of his beer.

"I think my store bought version will suit me just fine tonight." Anna added, while raising her glass to Elizabeth who quickly raised her own. Both girls all smiles, at putting the men in their place. Will smiling, sat down on the bar stool, while gently pulling Elizabeth to rest between his legs. He would have offered his chair to her, but knew she preferred to stand and be able to talk with Anna. Jack took the lone remaining chair, and Anna placed an arm around his shoulder holding her beer with the other and eyed the dance floor. A can of soda was then was set on the table, and Will suddenly remembered Joseph was still standing behind him.

"Joseph, excuse me," Will slightly turned so Joseph was visible to the entire table.

"Joseph this is my best friend Jack and his girlfriend Anna."

"So I'm just Jack's girlfriend." Snapped Anna, with a mocking tone in her voice. Will just smiled and winked at her.

"And this is my girlfriend Elizabeth, which you have already fondly met." Will teased, as he smiled up at her.

"Elizabeth," Joseph nervously replied, trying to avoid eye contact with the gorgeous woman in front of him, "it's so nice to finally meet you. Will has told me so much about you." He then quickly grabbed her outstretched hand and quickly shook it, releasing it almost as soon as he took it. Elizabeth gave him a warm smile in return,

"Don't believe everything you hear. Will has a tendency to exaggerate when speaking about me." Will wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her back down so she was practically in his lap.

"I can't exaggerate what everyone can plainly see, you truly are stunning." He lightly kissed her lips before resting his chin on her shoulder.

"I swear if I hadn't seen you naked, I'd swear you were a woman mate." Jack replied shaking his head in disbelief as Will laughed and kissed Elizabeth's bare shoulder before taking another sip of his beer.

Joseph just looked on the four with disbelief. First of all, he had no clue that Will even associated with anyone outside of the team. Yet here he was with the mascot of all people, who just insulted his manhood. Then to top things off the mascot was not only Will's best friend, but also had a matching beautiful girlfriend at his side. He had no clue what she or Will saw in him. His long dreads where kept off his face by a bandanna and draped his shoulders. The jeans he wore looked as if he had slept in them the past week. His dark red button up shirt, similar to the white shirt Will was currently donning, was only buttoned up half way revealing a large portion of his surprisingly toned chest. His dark eyes were mysterious, and his personality so far was fairly cynical.

"What does he have that I don't" Joseph asked himself, as he eyed Jack across the table.

"If ya take a picture it will last longer mate." Jack suddenly replied, turning to Joseph, and then rolling his eyes at Will as he put his arm around Anna's waist.

"Will I'm going to go check out the party," Joseph said with annoyance as he turned and marched off towards the dance floor.

"Pleasure to meet you too," Jack said aloud as he raised his glass at Joseph's back as he walked away.

"Jack, why to you have to be such an ass sometimes?" Anna replied, as she looked down into Jack's smoky eyes.

"I thought you liked my ass," Jack responded cheekily as he pinched her tush.

"Jack when did you see Will naked?" Elizabeth questioned.

"Liz, anyone who is friends with either of you has seen both of you naked. You two are like rabbits." Anna answered.

"Oh! At least we don't break into you apartment and christen your couch!" Elizabeth cried, a large smile spread across her face. For a moment Anna almost blushed, until frustration won over.

"You gave me a key!" She retorted.

"For emergencies!"

"It was an emergency, trust me Liz." Jack interrupted, as Elizabeth eyed Anna in disbelief across the table then broke out in laughter. A comfortable silence fell amongst them. Jack spotted the vivid pink dress on the dance floor whose date and she seemed to have their eyes plastered on Will and Elizabeth. Jack tipped his beer toward the dance floor, pointing out the obvious to Will while trying to keep it under the girl's radar.

Will just smiled and shook his head. He let Elizabeth slip from his grasp as she went to whisper something in Anna's ear. It was Jack's forward no bull shit attitude that he loved most about him.


Will had met Jack on the first day of freshmen orientation. Being heavily recruited out of high school, Will was treated like royalty compared to other freshman. Will hated being the center of attention, constantly paraded around room to room with all the other athletes. On one of his breaks he managed to escape into a nearby park. While collecting his thoughts on a bench, his peace was interrupted by a man who seemed to be arguing with himself. The more he listened he realized the man was practicing a script and playing all the parts by himself. What surprised Will was that he was doing it extraordinarily well. Suddenly the voice stopped, and Will started to gather his things.

"Have you ever played a woman?" Will jumped up from the bench in shock, turning to face the voice.

"What!?" He replied softly, trying to catch his breath.

"A woman, have you ever played one?"

"No!"

"Really?" The man asked with his eyebrows raised, looking down towards Will's waistline then back up. Will quickly defended himself,

"Well I took a girl to prom and she tried to…" suddenly his face cleared of confusion, "Who are you?!"

The man held out his hand,

"Jack, Jack Sparrow." He looked at Will with confusion again as he continued to shake his hand. "And you are…"

"Will, Will Turner." Jack stopped shaking his hand and gave him an inquisitive look, rubbing his chin,

"An athlete aye?" Will looked down at what he was wearing, jeans and faded Fox T-shirt.

"How did you know?"

"It was nice to meet you William." Jack started to walk back towards his bag. Will, now thoroughly confused trailed closely behind.

"I am a history major actually."

"Let me guess," Jack suddenly looked up from packing his bag, "Soccer."

Will just rolled his eyes,

"Football."

"Close enough." Jack placed on a wide brimmed leather hat and started across the lawn.

The next time Will saw Jack was in Greek Mythology. Will walked into the lecture hall and recognized the leather hat. He saw a small herd of football players in the upper row, whereas Jack was sitting more towards the middle. Will took the seat next to him,

"You should really lay off the incense." Will quietly muttered as he sat down.

"Ah, soccer boy!" Jack exclaimed as he looked up with amusement.
"I thought you were a theater major, what places you in Greek Mythology?"

"William, in the arts you must be able to portray a multitude of facets…"

"Covering your humanities requirement?" Will interrupted, as the professor took the podium.

"Aye," replied Jack, "when did I tell you I was a theater major?"

"You!" Both Will and Jack's attention turned towards the professor.

"There are no hats in my lecture room you may take it off or leave." Jack silently stood, gathered his things, then tipped his had to the professor as he headed out of the lecture hall.

"Parting is such sweet sorrow," Jack versed to the professor as he stepped out of the hall.

The professor ignored the gesture and started into her power point presentation. Will's last class of the day was fencing. They came into the room dressed in full attire, including their fencing masks. It was done like that on purpose, so everyone was considered an equal opponent male or female. Will had been active in fencing since he was a child. He loved fencing. Unlike football, his actions only affected himself. There was no pressure to complete a pass or dodge a blitz; it was only him and his opponent. When he won he felt like he truly accomplished something, when he lost he felt like he gained valuable experience to apply to the next match. Although, much like football, Will Turner rarely lost a match. His first opponent in fencing was obviously an amateur and was defeated within minutes of the match beginning. The instructor then placed Will with another opponent. A small framed person saluted him, and the instructor then signaled the start of the match. His opponent immediately took him off guard and did an advance then lunge. Will barely dodged the attack and marveled at the footwork of his opponent as they practically chased him around, dominating the match. Will finally saw their weakness, the loose grip on the sabre, and with their next advance Will expertly maneuvered his weapon around the attack and knocked the sabre loose from their hand. Unfortunately, the opponent was moving forward with such velocity that when Will suddenly twisted and knocked the weapon from their hand, they could not stop themselves and ran right into Will's broad chest. Will tried to catch his opponent before they fell, but just got hold of their mask as they stumbled backward onto the floor. A beautiful brunette looked back up at him, her honey colored eyes filled with frustration. Will couldn't take his eyes off her, her long hair was tied up in a bun to keep it in her mask, and her cheeks were flushed from her efforts during the match. She looked at his hand which stayed idly by his side, and released a loud sigh as she started to get up on her own.

"Please let me," another fencer announced as he practically pushed Will out of the way and offered his hand to the entrancing woman. Will then realized his error, and grabbed the woman's elbow, assisting her upright to her feet.

"Thank you, but I am not an invalid." The woman stated with annoyance as she slipped from the two of their grasps. She quickly donned her mask again, picking up her weapon, bowing to Will, and then walking off towards the locker room. Will just stood there stunned.

"I saw her first," replied the other fencer to Will.

"What?" The other fencer then removed his mask,

"I said, finders keepers mate." Winked Jack, as he started towards the locker room.

"Jack," Will went running after him, "who is she?" Once in the locker room Will removed his mask. "And since when do you fence?"

"Her name is Elizabeth Swan, she is the daughter of some royal. As I stated before William, to master my trade requires me to be proficient at numerous skills."

"Elizabeth Swan," Will whispered.

"What are your plans tonight William?" Jack interrupted, removing his jacket.

"Just homework and sleep, I have early morning practice tomorrow, why?"

"Well, I've been wanting to go check out the club scene here, and I just happen to know that Ms. Swan is going to be hanging out at the Pearl tonight."

"How did you acquire that information?" Will questioned. Jack rolled his eyes,

"I heard her talking to one of her mates bout it being her birthday tonight. Going to be a whole bunch of them out at the Pearl celebrating."

"Why take me?" Will questioned, no one ever offered something without wanting something in return.

"You fence, study history, and play soccer. The question you should be asking yourself is why him?" Jack smiled and turned to walk away.

"It's football," Will called after him, Jack just raised his hand to waive off the comment.

"What time should I meet you?" Will called after him again. Jack turned and smiled,

"Eight in front of the Pearl." Will smiled in return, and nodded his head.


"Anyone home?" A soft voice whispered in his ear broke him from his reverie. Will pulled Elizabeth close to him,

"Just thinking about the night we met." He smiled as he softly kissed her.

"You mean the day you blocked my advance and I ended up on my derriere."

"And what a cute derriere it is I might add." Will emphasized his point with a quick pat to her tush. Elizabeth went with the encouragement and retook his lips in a searing kiss.

"Good God you two are like dogs," Jack groaned. Suddenly Anna looked at Elizabeth and quickly kicked her from underneath the table. Elizabeth reluctantly broke the kiss, and turned to kick Anna back when she was pushed aside and a blur of pink flashed in front of her eyes.

"Will, you owe me a dance remember!" Jessica replied, her arms draped around Will's neck in a loose hug. Will looked as if he had just been attacked, as he stood to escape the embrace.

"Jess, where is Jeremy?" Will responded as he looked to see Elizabeth's reaction. Will could practically see the flames coming from Elizabeth's eyes as she took in the scene. He quickly weaved his arm around her waist and pulled her close to his side. Jessica finally turned to face Elizabeth,

"Liz, when did you get here?" She questioned innocently. Anna had had enough,

"Liz and I arrived late," Anna coolly replied, as Jack stood and put an arm around her waist as well. Anna quickly pushed his arm away as she continued forward towards Jessica.

"We wouldn't have been so late if Liz didn't spend all afternoon shagging Will." Anna continued. "Now why don't you go find a pole and do what you do best."

"What is that suppose to mean," Jessica coldly replied as she moved closer to Anna.

"You are what you wear," Anne sneered as she stood practically nose to nose with Jessica.
"Ladies," Jack interrupted, "why don't we all head toward the dance floor and work off some aggression." He placed his arm around both women's shoulders.

"Don't touch me mascot!" Jessica replied, as she slipped out from his grasp.

"No worries Jess, he doesn't like cheap woman." Anna replied, sliding her arm protectively around Jack's waist. Jessica looked as if she was going to lunge at Anna when Jeremy suddenly came up from behind and placed his arm around her shoulder. Jess slightly jumped in surprise, then rolled her eyes when realizing who it was.

"Hey Elizabeth," Jeremy said with a shy smile.

"How are you Jeremy?" Elizabeth replied with a warm smile. "Painting the still life portrait the other day was tough." Elizabeth was an Art major, and Jeremy apparently was in her painting class. Will watched as the young man slowly started to blush,

"You made it look easy Liz…you are such an amazing artist." He replied timidly. Jeremy was slightly taller than Will, and as a defensive end was very muscular in build. He could easily appear on the front page of GQ with his crew cut dark brown hair, broad cheek bones, and profound eyes.

"Amazing no, aspiring yes." Elizabeth replied with a light laugh. Will noted how Jeremy's eyes were glued to Elizabeth, and how they followed her neckline down to her chest as she turned her head to look at Anna.

"Liz, would you like to dance?" Will questioned out of the blue. Watching Jeremy pull from his trance and look nervously at Will then to the floor.

"But Will," Jessica started to interrupt,

"I would love to." Elizabeth cut her off and followed Will's lead to the dance floor. Jack and Anna followed closely behind. Elizabeth wrapped her arms around Will's shoulder, as he took her by the waist and started dancing to the music. He watched as Jeremy and Jess also took the floor, and Jeremy continued to eye Elizabeth. A soft kiss to the back of his ear caught his attention.

"I should have worn the dress tonight, your attention seems to be elsewhere." Elizabeth joked with smile. All thoughts of Jeremy melted away as he rubbed his hands up and down the back of her silk top.

"I assure you Liz, you have all my attention. You look amazing tonight, so amazing I'm jealous of any other man who happens to look you way." Elizabeth pulled Will flush against her as they continued to dance to beat of the music. Rap was ideal music to grind on your boyfriend.

"Do not be jealous," Elizabeth replied, her lips skimming Will's, "for I am yours, and only yours…" Will fiercely claimed her lips, his hands roaming her sides as the passion increased. He loved the thin material of the silk top, it made it feel as if Elizabeth was wearing nothing at all. His thumbs massaged circles on the sides of her breasts, while his mouth moved to her neck line, she softly moaned.

"forever." She finished, as his lips found hers again. Will's mind was on autopilot, he could not think of anything but the feel of Elizabeth beneath his fingertips as his hands roamed the outside of her top. Elizabeth was clinging to him, digging her fingers into his shoulders as his lips attacked her shoulder.

"Will," she said breathlessly. Will pulled back to look at her, noting the look of lust in her eyes that mirrored his own.

"Take me home," she whispered, a slight smile crept across her face as she noted the slight look of confusion in his eyes,

"Take me home, then take me to bed." She finished, reclaiming his lips again as she kissed him deeply. Will ended the kiss, and nodded his head; he couldn't seem to formulate words at the moment. All he could think of was finding Jack and Anna, and then getting back to Elizabeth's apartment as soon as possible. He took Elizabeth's hand and started to lead her though the mass of people on the dance floor, finding it rather hard to walk in his current circumstance. It felt as if his lower half was throbbing. He then spied them, Jack had Anna pinned against a support beam and the two were practically shagging. Will pulled Elizabeth though the remaining mass then tapped Jack on the shoulder. A few moments later, Will tapped Jack on the shoulder again and with an exasperated sigh he turned around. It was as if the two had read each other minds, either that or they both looked down at each other's groins. Jack suddenly turned to Anna who nodded her head, and the four headed towards the exit of the bar. Will eyed the campus bus approaching its stop across the street and quickly let go of Elizabeth's hand and went dashing after it like a mad man. His efforts paid off, and he stalled the bus driver as Jack, Anna, and Elizabeth caught up to him and boarded the bus. Not a word was spoken between them. Jack's apartment was first on the route, and he and Anna quickly said their goodbyes and practically ran off the bus. Finally, Elizabeth's apartment stop came. The moment the bus door had closed behind them Elizabeth jumped on Will, knocking him onto the grassy knoll in front of her apartment building. The cool grass felt amazing through Will's shirt against his hot skin. He felt Elizabeth hands go under his shirt and move up and down his chest, her lips like electricity on his skin as she trailed kissed along his neckline and now exposed shoulder. Will then felt the silk of her top against his chest and realized his shirt had been unbuttoned. He quickly turned over so Elizabeth was underneath him, as his hands roamed under her shirt. He reveled in the fact she wasn't wearing a bra, as his hands massaged her chest. He then felt Elizabeth's hands at his belt buckle, with what remaining composure he had, he then lifted her in his arms so she was straddling him, and carried her up to her apartment building. He released her lips to get a better view of the key pad that allowed entrance to the building. Elizabeth then moved one of her hands from around his shoulders and slid it down his chest down into the front of his jeans. Will gasped, and squeezed his eyes shut as she started to wreak havoc with his mind and body. He felt his reserve quickly fading, and briefly thought about taking her now against the door of her apartment building. With Elizabeth's lips back on his collar bone, and her other hand still busy down his trousers, all the while her thighs clinging to his sides (she really is talented at multitasking he momentarily thought) he then opened his eyes and punched in the access code. The door buzz and the two practically fell through. Will pushed Elizabeth up against a wall in the entrance way to get a better grip on her again, and to halt her torment in his trousers. He was quickly nearing the point of no return and was determined to get to her bedroom to finish things off.

"Excuse me," came an unfamiliar voice. Elizabeth gasped and quickly removed her hands from Will's pants, and put her feet on the floor. Will quickly turned to view the old woman, who had to be in her eighties, viewing the two with disgust.

"I am so sorry Miss," Wills stuttered out as he stood frozen in front of the woman. The older woman looked him up and down; standing in front of her with his shirt unbuttoned, bare chest, and his jeans unbuttoned to reveal the top of his now bunched up boxers.

"Well aren't you cute," the older woman smiled and winked at Elizabeth. Will's brow furrowed with confusion,

"You two have fun tonight," the old woman laughed as she walked out of the building. Elizabeth couldn't help but laugh,

"I think she was hitting on you Will," she smiled as he turned to face her. Will lifted Elizabeth back into his arms, and started to walk her up the stairs to her apartment.

"Well," he softly kissed her as he set her down and took his key to her apartment out of his wallet. He then unlocked the door and guided Elizabeth in, once in he shut the door behind them and turned to face her.

"She must not waste her time, because I am yours, and only yours…" he softly claimed her lips. His hands at her waist moving up her sides, taking her blouse with them. Moments later her blouse was off, and he picked her up again, loving the feel of her skin against his. He carried her to her bedroom, where he gently laid her down and stated kissing down her jaw, to her shoulder, giving special attention to her chest until he heard her softly moaning again. Then he raised himself slightly off her and pressed his forehead to hers, she opened her eyes to gaze into his,

"forever." He finished. The intensity in his eyes overwhelmed Elizabeth, as she feverishly claimed his lips. Her hands roaming his body, and his unfastening her jeans.


Long chapter, I know. The flashbacks will continue with the upcoming chapters, including Will's first encounter with Elizabeth at the Pearl. Hope you enjoyed it : )
